Everyone says AI is replacing jr devs. Disagree. It's making the job of a jr much more fun. You can just focus on understanding concepts and solving problems that would otherwise require a lot more domain knowledge.
Wrong Juniors especially staying within confines of only coding ngmi Develop taste to direct ai and ability to review ai code
Answer is yes. Both Junior or not, go outside of purely writing code. Beyond full stack, go full cycle in sw dev cycle including product iteration & requirements gathering, revising But juniors, PMs not upskill & review, verify AI generated code ngmi x.com/garyfung/statu…
totally agree. jr dev here. i can abstract away the syntax, understand core concepts and transfer between languages!
this is exactly what i see with erika tbh she handles the boring expense categorization stuff (200+ requests/month) so our finance team can focus on actual analysis and decision making ai employees should make human work more strategic, not eliminate it entirely
also they can learn directly by building fun projects instead of those boring tutorial projects
Your “Why is Everyone Lying” video is one of my favorite counterpoints to this notion. The people saying AI will replace juniors don’t respect and greatly underestimate what a good junior is capable of.
Absolutely agreed it gives freedom to work on new features after completing monotonous tasks with chatgpt and automation .
I actually think it is replacing jr devs in some noticeable way given the current junior dev job market and the rise in AI tooling at the same time. Junior devs are still required, but less are needed to do the same amount of work
Also learning is so much faster. You can ask silly questions and not feel like a dunce in front of others haha. Grasping concepts like tdd or events etc even di is enjoyable
This is so true! Any tips on how to effectively use AI to understand concepts faster and solve problems more smoothly? I’m trying to figure out how to make AI a seamless part of my learning workflow as a junior dev. Any guidance or resources would be gold 🙏
Right, it's not replacing junior devs, but it is raising the bar for entry
Yeah JR devs need to learn to use AI. Without it they are pretty useless.
Maybe the domain knowledge is what's needed to make a juunior go till a senior?
If you not using AI as a dev you’re basically in 2020 still using Skype when Zoom is booming. You’ll have a dev who does use AI outpace your productivity a way that would seem unfair but it’s not your fault. Just adapt.
It's raising the standard for the Jr devs. From only know about HTML, CSS, and JS, Jr devs right now are required to know more deeply
For "existing" jr devs that is true, totally different story for the to-be jr devs...
Absolutely true. We don't have to set up the same configs over and over. Now we can actually focus on solving real problems.
Yeah, I also think it’s made entry level a little more demanding than it used to be.
slop removes gatekeeping and makes me less anxious, though it kinda feels like there's a cost, a cost of $20 a month, i hate that part
